Is an England Legend Heading to I'm a Celebrity?
The former Manchester United star striker will likely be seen on one of Britain's most famous reality shows.
Will we soon see Wayne Rooney in a completely different role on television?
According to reports from the British "Sun", the former Manchester United forward is set to be part of the upcoming season of "I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here" - the English version of "Dschungelcamp".
The now 41-year-old is said to be one of twelve celebrities entering the Australian jungle as part of the ninth season. The launch is on November 16.
His wife Coleen Rooney was already part of the show two years ago, where she finished second.
Great Successes as a Player
Rooney ended his active professional career in 2021. After that, he tried his hand at coaching, including at Derby County and most recently at Plymouth until December 2024. He also regularly appeared as a TV pundit.
As a player, he celebrated great successes. With Manchester United, he won five championships and the Champions League, among other titles. For England, he scored 53 goals in 120 international matches.
